What Reader’s Say
Absolutely beautiful, Rob! The way you expressed your thoughts, it was just so simple yet so powerful. As I read line by line, I couldn’t agree with you more. As much as I believe and practice most of what you’ve written, I do know it’s hard to remind yourself of these things when feelings get hurt or if insecurities creep in. But this is definitely a post I will read over and over again when those feelings start to creep in for me. As much as I know most of what you’ve written to be true, it’s much easier to be reminded by other’s words when all else seems to fail. So thank you for sharing this. It was very inspiring! Blessings to you xo

Hi Rob. Great to see your email in my inbox again. Hope you are well. Thanks for some great insight as usual. Just thought I’d update you on how things are going with me. I’m feeling more happiness and joy every day. Sure, I have my down days when my job gets on my nerves and people annoy me, but they’re getting fewer. I’m still in the career that I’m not sure is for me, but I’m in a much better place mentally now. I think a lot of my stress before came from wanting something better RIGHT NOW, but now I’ve realised that, yes, this career may not be for me, but I’m just looking for the right opportunity/direction and keeping myself in a good place until it shows itself to me. I’ve also just got married – back from honeymoon for 2 weeks now and things are going great. I’d just like to say thanks for your help when we exchanged emails last year. You’ve helped (along with others) to enable me to get a better mind set on life and I feel I can deal with most things from this secure baseline. p.s., your mantra of “do you want to be right or happy?” seems to work well in marriage, as I’m never right, so the default is happy! Warmest regards

I’ve only listened to the first 12 minutes (no time till the weekend for the full 90 mins.), and already I have an insight that explains something I’ve been missing. Part of my struggle has been doing something with the insights that should be game changers, but often don’t move me ahead in a way I would expect. In other words; knowing what’s wrong and still staying stuck with it. Just a comment from Rob about 10 mins. into the recording cleared up why that cycle exists for me. Listen yourself, but in summary he noted that ‘if you have nothing more important to strive for in your life, than to understand and remove the negatives, the mere desire to change won’t be strong enough to outweigh that motivation’. I took that to mean that you have a better chance of “moving on”, when you are careful to make what’s ahead more important than what’s behind. I’ve spent far more time looking back. It’s no wonder it’s become far greater than the life I want. I just have never put any meaningful and persistent action into chasing it in concrete ways. In thinking I needed to figure out and rectify first, I was never developing the foundation to build the life I wished for on. It seems logical that if ones primary focus is where you want to go and who you want to become, that the past which often seems to have so much power, would play a lesser role in the perception of self. I’ve got to chew on this.
